Longhairgal- frequently I get "brothers" I know (some sisters) will be at my business and encourage me to return to the "Truth". Then, in another breath ask for money or a loan or pitch a business ideal that they need funding for. I tell them I'm not a bank. I don't give out loans. Some even tell me that it is my obligation to help my brother because I have more then he does, so I can give!?! I have helped some find jobs ( disappointment to my good name and theirs) so I don't anymore. All these people want is a hand out and don't want to work. Very sad shape.

History repeated: pre-1975 trend of selling homes to ‘downsize’
by LongHairGal ini saw this thread on reddit.
i think the reason for this is that the 1975 fiasco is never mentioned in the jw religion.
nobody mentioned it to me when i came in the years after.. the problem with this is that all the sad stories were never told (or hushed up) of people who sold off homes, etc.

Since I was looked down upon for going to college and getting an education and now these same brothers say that I should " share " my wealth with them. Such nerve. Where were they when I was working long hours putting my business together? Not all of them but most of those who ask who ask for a hand out, sorry, you have to work like I do.

There was a KM that encouraged and gave examples of how one's sold their property pre 75 to pioneer. I'm glad my parents had the business sense not to fall for that crap or I would be in a real poor house. And yet people to this day with their head up their dark area, still give money and control to Watchtower.!?!

Mind control
by joao inwt has really been doing a great job at mind-controlling their members.
how can people who say they are your friends not even want to know why you're leaving when you want them to know?!
eh!

There is no mercy for stupidity. If someone told you not to plan ahead and you followed it and things went bad(bad investment) don't come running to me for help. After all, I was discouraged to get an education and my career path, even looked down on. An now, these same people want a hand out?! They can pound sand!

Disassociation letter

i couldn't stand it anymore!
so many lies, the exploitation of sincere people, the ridiculous amount of rules and all this protection of pedophiles, plus the life of gb as if they were wealthy dictators!

That works for you to write A DA letter , I sometimes wish I would of wrote one. But would be real simple. It would say " Go Screw yourself " or " Piss off" but I gave them my answer with my feet.

Caleb & Sophia - The Watchtower gets weirder
by Listener inthe latest video release 4/4/22 (lesson 44 'don't give up') in the comic series of caleb & sophia just got weirder.
the plot is about caleb & sophia preaching door to door, caleb with his father and sophia with her mother.
it shows each of them having doors slammed on them four times.

When I was younger an forced to do field circus. There was a brother that I always worked with. On just about every corner of the block was a trash can that was covered. When no one was looked in went the offer for the month. We "placed" alot of magazines but not even talked to anyone.

I was a Pimo must of my early life by force. I hated it! I was not my true authentic self. How can anyone lve under those conditions without mental issues which I have to deal with today. But better without self medicating with drugs and drink.

Remember the "Pioneer Shuffle " and those soft knocks that Pioneer 's would do at the door to avoid talking to anyone?

Do you find Watchtower as Looney as Jim Jones?
by Foolednomore inforbid the universe for the mass suicide of many.
but with the no blood policy, the constant call to be loyal to the org no matter how looney it seems, just very dangerous to any normal thinking person.
or just crazy stupidity?.

Good point! I hope my family see what a waste of time and life being a Jw is. I sure found it out. I can't understand why people can't figure this out. Watchtower offers something that no way you can cash, not worth the paper it's printed on, yet it was sold. What a fraud.

I fear for my family that are still in. Watchtower is pretty Damn crazy. Not surprises me at this day and age. I know Watchtower is working to suck it's members dry on any cash they have.
